All about Nova.


 Hello everyone I am here today to discuss my favorite female character I have been creating for the past year called Nova. 


Nova begun life in June 2019 as a princess who was rescued by Laser Man and taken to the town, I now call Prattchetton and the two lived a happy life fulfilled by dancing to 60s classics. 

A year and bit has past since that time and now Nova lives in a small bungalow her mother gave her with Delta, Nova's nephew and Laser Man comes over from time to time, she also works in the council in the planning and development of Prattchetton; so this means she looks at areas around town and works out what should be done to improve them or whether to leave things as they are. 

Nova also has a phobia of rats and mice, which I nod back to my own phobias of large spiders and moldy rooms because I felt it would be quite funny to do as I can be often seen screaming like a petrified cat at poor tiny or bigger than they should be spiders or whacking a CD case off them til they get the message or scuttle away.

She also has an interest in soul and Motown music which refers to my recent interest in Motown by accident. Sometimes I imagine her in her bungalow after a long day at work and just turning on her record player to play This Love Starved Heart by Marvin Gaye at the loudest volume. I have made her theme song Upside Down by Paloma Faith which is a modern Soul classic and the music video has an impressive outfit  (photo below). I have been always amazed by Women of soul or punk as they usually come out with the most impressive outfits that link into one and other and are vivid in color and vintage. 

As a teenager she, Petal, Rain, Silver, Delta and Ray would make films that were comedic and some were dramatic. Often in the films she and Rain would play a married couple and would either end up fighting or kissing (depending how bossy/stressful the day was) 

While in between this design and her princess design I experimented with her hair a lot, one time it was medium and wavy and another (which was a very popular design) was her blue and yellow gelled up short modern day worker hair which nodded to my taste in girls with short hair. Also at that time my mum had just had a hair cut and she was a basis for Nova. 

Anyways that is enough on my favorite female and I hope to share more character soon.
